Poof

January is gone. That was fast.

We're half way through February already.

It's truly amazing how time flies.

To sum up January - it was good. I honestly don't remember a lot that happened. Is that bad? It's probably bad. Oh well.

I did go to a rabbit show. All the champions from all the counties came to Lansing to compete. There were about 12 of us. And I won. No big deal. Just the best rabbit showman in the state of Michigan.

I got all my prom stuff. Dress. Shoes. Jewelry. Now all I need is a date.

I hate Economics. I swear it's out to get me. "There's a test Wednesday." "Awesome, I got this in the bag. I've studied and I understand everything." Wednesday - "I don't know this ... crap." C+ "Well, at least I passed." This happens about once every week or so. I'm surprised I'm still getting above at 80% in there.

Anyway, on to February. I entered a poetry contest. I submitted two poems: The Floor and They Call it Love (I changed the title on the last one). (Click the titles to read them.) I mailed those in yesterday, and March 2nd, I have to perform them, so that will be something new. I'm not exactly the one to go up and talk in front of a bunch of people, let alone memorize two whole poems and recite them. So we'll see how it goes. Worst comes to worst, I suck and I never do it again. No big deal.

Next weekend is the annual Chicago trip with the dance company, and I am very pumped. I have one goal - to buy a travel mug with the Chicago skyline on it. I saw one last year and didn't get it. I regret that. I'm buying one even if it's $35. (Ok, probably not that much. $20 is my limit.) Otherwise, I'm going to buy cute clothes and yummy food and have a blast! I've been saving up my birthday and Christmas money (which is really hard for me) and I can't wait to spend it.

Anyway, this month should be crazy busy - February always is. But hey, that's my life and I enjoy it. I like being busy. I just don't enkoy the stress that comes along with it. Oh well. Price you pay, I suppose.
